Short ๐งต inflation musings..
1970s inflation across the world - inc NZ - led to a sustained shift in the price level of NZ imports.
The 1980s stock market crash hit NZ hard. We also introduced GST in 1986 and raised it in 1989 creating our very own inflation spikes ๐ [1/n]

We had a few inflation blips between 2000 and 2023, all triggered by sudden increases in import costs - apart from *one* in 2011. What happened? We increased GST again for the win โ๏ธ. [2/n]
The only thing that predicts inflation in NZ better than import costs is the retail price of imported diesel. Why? Because our economy is oil-powered and oil and fossil-fuel reliant products (eg plastics, fertiliser) are major input costs for NZ businesses. [3/n]

draisaitl on the oilers defending better: "i thought we defended really well, all four lines. in the playoffs, you got to understand they're a good team, right? they're going to have their push. they got lots of good players too. they're going to make plays every once in a while, but i thought after we gave up one, we got back to our game. a solid effort."
draisaitl on getting a goal back right after the kings scored: "big. those are the momentum shifts everyone talks about all the time, right? those are big, especially in away buildings in the playoffs. it was a big goal by kaner."
draisaitl on kane, what makes him a playoff player: "i think he just feeds off the intensity. he enjoys that part, he enjoys the physicality, he enjoys the simplicity, in a way, of playoff goals. he's obviously really, really good at it. i thought the first three games here, he's been fantastic."

Tonight, the Umass Lowell Students for Justice in Palestine account posted a dystopian clash between Israeli- supporting students on NEU campus defending themselves against the anti-Zionist / anti-Israel crowd

Part 1: The crowd surrounds a pair of Israeli flag holders while chanting โhey hey, ho ho. These Zionist have got to go.โ

Hinduism in China.
Hinduism is still present in China, though it is now in minuscule numbers. However archaeological evidences suggest there was once a thriving presence of Hindus in different provinces of medieval China.
In photos is the Kaiyuan temple, in Quanzhou, a province of southeast China. According to the historians, there were more than a dozen Hindu temples, including two big shrines, in Quanzhou and the surrounding villages, which were built by a group of Tamil traders who lived here during the Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1279-1368) periods.
In 1271, a visiting Italian merchant recorded that the Indian traders "were recognised easily. These rich Indian men and women mainly live on vegetables, milk and rice, unlike the Chinese who eat meat and fish."
The Kaiyuan temple show many Shaiva motifs, similar to the ones seen on temples in Tamil Nadu of the same period (10th-14th centuries).

In the 1930s, many murtis of Narasimha were unearthed from Quanzhou during an archaeological excavation by Wu Wenliang. Among other Hindu artefacts, images depicting Puranic stories associated with Vishnu and Shiva were also found, showing a style similar to what is seen on temples in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh of the same period (10th -14th centuries).
Besides the Tamil traders, Indians entered China through the Kamrup route (Assam) via Burma into south Chinese province of Yunnan, as well as other southwestern regions of modern China. This is supported by by the discovery of Shiva-linga and yoni in Jianchuan caves, while many other Hindu artefacts were found during excavation of Dali temple in Yunnan.
Another route to enter China was through Kashmir, and it was this route that carried Buddhism to China.

My post is in context to a Hanuman murti photo that I had shared on Hanuman Jayanti. The murti was from China, and few then had said there was no Hinduism ever in China, and the hanuman murti was actually from a jataka tale of Buddhism.
